If I look semi-crazed in some of these photos it's because flea markets make me that way. Something comes unhinged in me as soon as I see those rows of vendors, I almost want to skip through the entire thing because I'm so excited to be there. These were taken at the Alameda Flea Market a few weeks ago, one of my favorites. The weather was perfect, I was wearing one of my favorite dresses, Nicole was by my side, and my giant tote bag quickly filled up to the brim. I happily spent five hours pawing through everything and I could have stayed for the rest of the day if they hadn't started to pack up. I guess I was made to live the life of a crazy flea market troll!

garsh, i wish there was a good flea like this around here. looks like you had perfect weather, and i love that hat! i cant wait to be heading up to brimfield in a little less than three weeks time. now, that is a sight to behold! vintage and antiques as far as the eye can see!

That looks awesome, great photos and I love the line of semi-mutilated plastic heads. I had one of those when I was 8. I gave it a mo-hawk and permanent marker tattoos. My mum started to worry about me...
